Great simple read but a good story especially at this time when we are demonizing "Boatpeople". Summary: The exceptional tale of Anh Doh and his family as they grew up in Australia having fled war torn Vietnam. Things I liked: Great stories, touching stories, amazing stories; I can't really believe this is someone's real life but in that it is all of the proceeding things ... nuff said. Things I thought could be improved: Some of the stories felt they were included just because they were good stories, not because they actually needed to tell the greater story of Anh's journey. I'm not 100% (cause I did enjoy them), but I think they probably should have been left out. Highlight: The revelation of Anh's Dad Oh my goodness how beautiful. What a wonderful, sad story. Finished it in the day. Funny and yet made tears zing in my eyes. Just enough to not be too much, or too little of the incredible story of Anh and his family. My heart breaks and yet is so full for them. I had this book read to me and my classmates in Year 5, and it's been on my TBR since I got back into reading; even as a 20 year old now, it has still stuck with me. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse

Anh Do nearly didn't make it to Australia. His entire family came close to losing their lives on the sea as they escaped from war-torn Vietnam in an overcrowded boat. This book tells the incredible, uplifting and inspiring life story of one of our favourite personalities. Tragedy, humour, heartache and unswerving determination - a big life with big dreams. Anh's story will move and amuse all who read it. No library descriptions found. |
